The gentle touch on her shoulder makes her look up, meeting Saedìs gaze with a small smile. She’s thankful for the small gesture, one of companionship and support, to say that she isn’t there on her own. And that Amorette appreciates. In favour of lightly pressing the velvet of her nose against the side of Saedìs mouth she bends her neck. No words are needed.
Beqanna’s history isn’t pretty, that Amorette knows. She had heard about the time when the Chamber had invaded the Gates, kidnapped her queen. And there is more like that, but not ever had she witnessed any of those things with her own eyes. The fairies hadn’t let the Reckoning happen for nothing, and it was up to all of them now to build Beqanna in such way for them to be proud of it. Tephra is doing exactly that, if you’d ask Amore.
She chuckles softly, nodding, as she is unable to tell Saedìs that it isn’t true. Because it simply is. Shame on her friend – with a playful wink of course. Amore’s dark eyes hold the sight of the volcano for a while, both her ears perked forward and with a twinkle of adoration and delight in her eyes. Home, she is home. And Amorette is more than happy to show her pale friend around.
”Know what you’re asking” she teases right back, playfully grinning at Saedìs. She steps closer towards her friend, lightly bumping her nose against the mare’s shoulder, then gesturing towards the volcano. ”Shall we go, then?” Amore does not wait for an answer, instead just casually starts walking. The rounding of her stomach is still small, not enough to limit her movements, but the ebony woman does not feel like hasting.
Where to take Saedìs first? Up the volcano? It would be a magnificent start, but, sadly enough, when she checks the location of the sun she has to decide it is a little too late to start such a big trip. But then what? The many caves? Or the sauna? Or maybe the heated pond at the base? Mura had really enjoyed it, and Amorette would lie if she’d say it wasn’t one of her favourite places. ”So? Are we going to relax? Or would you rather do something more thrilling?”
Amorette
Quand on n'a que l'amour.
